Cross sectional view of a precision backlash
Reducer. The two piece pin housing provides the ability to preload
one wheel against the other, reducing the output shaft backlash to
less than 6 arc-min. The extra support bearing prevents fretting
corrosion between the quill input shaft and the motor shaft. The
long output shaft bearing span provides exceptional overhung
load capabilities.

• Single stage reduction ratios up to 71:1 saves space
• Rolling motion minimizes friction and wear, reducing heat,
resulting in a 95% efficiency rating per stage
• 500% shock load capability as there are only compressive forces
rather than shear forces on the tooth
• Low speed of cycloidal wheel results in minimal reflected inertia,
less wear, and extremely long service life
• Due to the large overall “tooth / pin” contact area, select a
Reducer using smaller mechanical service factors
• Standard backlash offers the highest available torque rating at an
economical price
• Precision backlash results in tighter positional tolerances

The reduction ratio of the Speed Reducer can
be calculated using the following formula:
Operating Principles
1. When the input shaft makes one rotation, the eccentric roller
bearing also rotates once in the same direction.
2. The wheel is driven by the eccentric roller bearing.
It revolves around the internal pins with its teeth engaging with
consecutive pins.
3. When the eccentric roller bearing has completed one full rotation,
a tooth initially in mesh with a pin will be positioned
as many teeth behind its initial position as the difference between
the number of internal pins and the number of teeth.
As a result, the wheel rotates slowly in the
opposite direction of the input shaft.
4. The rotational motion of the wheel is transmitted to
the output shaft through the carrier pins.

R = the reduction ratio
N = the number of internal pins

Example: N=18 and M=17,
The power train sets
apart from
other speed reducers.
Its main power transmission
components include: an
eccentric roller bearing
drives a wheel around a
set of internal pins, keeping
rotational inertia low.
The result: exceptional
efficiency, long service life,
and reduced wear.

Selection Procedure for Induction Motor Applications
1. Determine the load classification from the Load Classification Table on page 8.
2. Select the Reducer service factor from the Service Factor Table (below) for the
application taking into consideration the load classification, duration of service, and type of
prime mover.
3. Calculate the required reduction ratio by dividing the input shaft rpm by the required output
shaft rpm.
4. If selecting the reducer by HP, determine the design HP by multiplying the motor HP by the
service factor. If selecting the reducer by torque, determine the design torque by multiplying
the required load torque by the service factor.
5. Select the Reducer frame size from the selection tables on pages 10 - 13,
making sure that the catalog rating exceeds either the design HP and/or design torque.
6. Select the required input type from page 9.
7. Select the required mounting type from page 9.
8. Select the required mounting position from page 9.
9. Check the overhung and/or thrust loads on shafts if connected to the load by either a
sprocket, sheave, pulley, or gear (pages 28 - 29).
10. Configure the model number (page 9), noting any unusual operating or ambient conditions.

Selection Procedure for Servo Motor Applications
1. Determine the load classification from the Load Classification Table on page 8.
2. Select the Reducer service factor from the Service Factor Table (below) for the
application taking into consideration the load classification and duration of service.
3. Calculate the required reduction ratio by dividing the rated servo motor speed (rpm) by the
required output shaft rpm.
4. Multiply the servo motor capacity (kW or HP) by the service factor and select the
Reducer from the selection table based on servo motor rated speed and
backlash required (pages 14 - 16) with a rating that exceeds this calculation. This is the
tentative selection.
5. Calculate the average torque by using the formula below, making sure that average torque
is less than the nominal torque value of the selected Reducer (T1) as shown in
our rating tables.
6. Multiply the selected Reducer nominal torque value (T1) as shown in our rating
tables by 1.5. Make sure that this value exceeds the acceleration torque of the application.
7. Select the required mounting type from page 9.
8. Select the required mounting position from page 9.
9. Check the overhung and/or thrust loads on the output shaft if connected to the load by either a
sprocket, sheave, pulley, or gear (pages 28 - 29).
10. Configure the model number (page 9), noting backlash and any unusual operating or ambient
conditions. Contact SHIMPO Drives Customer Service for questionable items, or applications

Miscellaneous Engineering Information
Ambient Temperature
The ambient operating temperature range of the Reducer is from 32˚F to 104˚F (0˚C to
40˚C). Contact SHIMPO Drives Customer Service if operating conditions fall outside of this range.
Backlash
The standard backlash option is approximately 1˚ (60 arc-min).
The precision backlash option is less than 0.1˚ (6 arc-min).
Direction of Rotation
The input shaft can be rotated in either direction. For single reduction reducers, the output shaft rotates
in the opposite direction of the input shaft. For double reduction reducers, the output shaft rotates in
the same direction as the input shaft.
Exact Ratio
All reduction ratios listed in this catalog are exact.
Thermal Ratings
The high efficiency of the Reducer results in thermal ratings which exceed its
mechanical rating in all cases. Therefore, it can be run continuously at any of the input speeds in this
catalog.

Miscellaneous Engineering Information
Output Shaft Overhung Load
When a sprocket, sheave, pulley, or gear is mounted on the output shaft or on the input shaft, an
overhung load is applied to the shaft. It is necessary to check whether the shafts of the reducer will
allow the required overhung load.
Overhung Load Calculation
Calculate the overhung load using the formula below:
Type of Connection Factor
General Purpose Chain 1.00
Machined Gear, Pinion,
or Syncronous Belt
V-Belt 1.50
Flat Belt 2.50
